Interview and Giveaway with Tina Ann Forkner, Author of Waking up Joy

Some books I get really excited about and just have to tell the world about them, and Tina Ann Forkner’s novel, Waking up Joy, is one of those books. A magical novel that pulled me right in and I couldn’t put it down till I’d finished every last word. You can read my review of Waking up Joy here. And Tina is such a sweet author… Read More

There are No Shortcuts

Me and my randomly scrawled notes… I’ve thought about blogging this before, then thought, “Nah–it’s too bleak.” But today during Sunday school, as we talked about growing in Christ and maturing in our Christianity, I realized it’s true: There are no shortcuts. Same thing with marriage, or with parenting. You can read every book out there before you give birth,… Read More

Happy #WestVirginiaDay! You might know that I love Happy #WestVirginiaDay! You might know that I love setting my contemporary mystery series in my home state of WV. What you might not know is that there was a time I wanted nothing more than to move away and spread my wings (somewhere like NYC! Where I wound up living for a year when I got married!). But years down the road, I felt my mountain roots pulling me back. Suddenly, I could see nothing but beauty in these comforting mountains and moody skies and honeysuckled summers. West Virginia is so many things—good and bad as any state is—but it’s entirely unique. My husband once marveled at how many people “came back” to their home state here, even after being gone for years, and I see that all the time. These #Appalachianmountains have a way about them, and it becomes a part of you, a love you don’t want to let go of. I’m a #mountainmama, and I’m glad to bring this truly #wildandwonderful state to readers with my books.
